Quick Review:
I did a 3 pass shave with a Merkur 47C using an Astra Platinum that was two shaves old.
First off, the price of this stuff can't be beat. It is just over 4$ a tube.
The scent is amazing, strong at the pereferal of your senses but a bit hard to identify. Was very modern cologne smelling, very nice.
It hits a home run for lather and slickness, and left absolutely no irritation for a WTG, AcTG, finishing with AgTG. Even neck feels great.
This was an absolutely follicle splitting, irritation free, closest shave of my life.
When the shave was done, absolutely didn't need a balm. And the plesent smell seems to last nicely.
To sum it up, it was like shaving with a brand new laser blue BMW. Perfection in a tube.
Which leaves me with my final comment: It had very little character.
It was a perfect wife that can cook, is a great lover, and supports you while you stay home to hobby all day.
But, you'd get bored with that quickly (well I honestly don't think I would...).
Maybe a tube will jump to 12$ a tube next week? Can a deal like this really last??
For me, I am more of a Proraso or Williams guy.
But if Proraso or Williams had to fight Nivea in a ring, it would be like watching a robot beat up a couch potato. Nothing to bet on and no competition.
That is just what takes the fun away from this product.
Should they make a Sandalwood? Well, then, I would probably only buy this tubed shave cream. It would just take that for me to sell out.
A+++ product. Cheap. Easy to find.
I am still in disbelief.
It is just that it is too good.
Yes, Williams Mug, you are still the most fun.
And Proraso Sandalwood, well, that just smells amazing.
Pick up a few tubes of this stuff, heck, at that price, fill your trunk.
